FlyQuest RED win rivalry series | ESL Impact S6 Week 2 Roundup
The most awaited matchup in ESL Impact NA delivered but in a week full of amazing series, it was tough to miss any of these matches. While FlyQuest RED has secured a spot in the ESL Impact LAN Final - not officially but no other team has been able to win a single map against them other than TSM Shimmer - the fight for the Top 4 is starting to heat up, with Imp Pact looking strong, Nouns fe showing a lot of room for improvement, and Blue Otter Karma bouncing back.
TSM Shimmer 1-2 FlyQuest RED 
The second week of ESL Impact Season 6 opened up with the biggest match in the region, and it did not disappoint. Both teams claimed their respective map picks on the back of solid CT-sides. The decider saw FlyQuest RED continue that trend while TSM Shimmer could not keep up. With this result, it is pretty much expected that FlyQuest RED will go on to represent NA in the ESL Impact Season 6 LAN Final, if nothing out of the ordinary happens meanwhile.

Blue Otter Karma 2-1 Lotus
Blue Otter Karma managed to bounce back in strong fashion after a tough 2-0 loss to Imp Pact in week one. The series against Lotus was a long one, with the first map Ancient finishing 13-10 in favor of Karma, and Anubis needing one overtime to settle things, as Lotus claimed the map 16-14. It was during the decider that Blue Otter Karma ended things, with a strong 13-3 Inferno win.

Nouns fe 0-2 FLUFFY MAFIA 
If last week showed why Nouns fe is one of the most hyped teams in ESL Impact NA, this week showed the other side of the squad, albeit with one substitute. The newly-signed FLUFFY MAFIA also had a substitute fielded but the outcome was very different. The MAFIA were able to take an easy 13-2 win on Anubis, following it up with a 13-8 Dust2 victory to claim the series.

Imp Pact 2-0 Aware
Imp Pact continue the winning ways from last week, claiming another 2-0 win, this time with two very comfortable maps, a 13-1 Mirage and a 13-0 Ancient. Lilith "gadfly" Mize and company continue to impress, but it remains to be seen if the team will keep the same level of performance against the most veteran Impact squads.
